Unilever: Cornetto maker defends decision to stay in Russia
Unilever said exiting was "not straightforward" as its operations would be taken over if it abandoned them.

Hmmmm, a case of other ice cream brands are available perhaps?
Where do you stand on this? In my business dealings with Unilever they’re a decent outfit for a behemoth so I have some probably biased sympathies.
However, isn’t it always complicated? And you can always make a case why it’s not easy? Sure others could offered same defence, but didn’t and/or written off losses.
Perhaps the new CEO will be forced to do so, this story/campaign appears to be gaining traction globally. Be interesting to see how it develops.
(Loads of puns up for grabs on this story too, do you level worst NSC!)
